Reviews

This is an essential read for anyone interested in Thailand on screen. Russell presents an expert analysis of how Thailand has been envisioned by Western filmmakers, and contrasts this with images by Thai directors as he maps a new wave of Thai filmmaking. * Deborah Shaw, Professor of Film and Screen Studies, University of Portsmouth, UK * Essential reading for those who wish to understand the complex international image of this complex nation. This book interrogates wider contemporary understanding of Thai film, and in doing so offers a welcome examination of changing global attitudes and relationships. * Dr. Mary J. Ainslie, Associate Professor of Film and Media, University of Nottingham Ningbo China, China China *
